Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C fan / 400°F. Peel the carrots and slice them on the diagonal; peel the onions and roughly chop them into sixths. Place the vegetables on a baking tray along with the fennel seeds, cumin seeds, olive oil and lots of salt and pepper. Roast for 30 minutes until tender and golden.
Step 2
Heat a pan and dry fry the pine nuts for a few minutes until they begin to turn golden; then set aside to cool.
Step 3
To make the cashew cream, simply blend all the ingredients in a high-speed blender until totally smooth.
Step 4
In a medium bowl, toss together the lentils, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
Step 5
To serve, tip the cashew cream onto a large plate or serving dish and spread out into an even layer using the back of a spoon. Scatter over half of the lentils, followed by the roasted vegetables. Add the remaining lentils, coriander, watercress, pine nuts, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
